A New CPU Breakthrough Promising 100x Efficiency

What if everything we know about CPUs is totally wrong? Efficient Computer is shaking up the embedded market with their new Electron E1 chip, claiming insane energy efficiency by making the data move the program. I'm really curious to see how their radical spatial data flow architecture actually holds up in the wild.

-Not a sponsored video. Just a really interesting press release and meeting with the founder.
